Please turn down your volume at the start and adjust as needed, bros mic was LOUD! I apologize for the audio issues, this was the best we could get after trying to fix it for hours!

.In what's likely the most special episode of the Shift Gear Podcast to date, we had the Pokèmon world champion Riley McKay of Burlington, ON join us for this week's episode. We're beyond thankful to Riley for coming on for what is the only piece of content including him since his historic 2025 Worlds run, bringing the crown back to Canada. In this video, Riley details his run, thought process, and everything else that goes into being a World Champion.

If you'd like to reach Riley, you can try sending a courier pigeon to his house or commenting below and hoping he sees it :)
